The track is the artist’s first solo release of 2024
Salt Ashes is an artist who’s sound always has this effortlessly cool and forward-thinking edge to it that manifests itself in atmospheric and cutting edge ways, and the artist’s latest single ‘Bad Things Right’ is a high-energy and rebellious release that explores being perceived as a villain by others that feels enticingly cool and exciting.
The track has this dancey flair and appeal to it thanks to her intoxicating vocal style and creative soundscape, making for this irresistible sense of darkness that stands out for all of the right reasons. There is a disco-esque appeal to the sound in spite of some of its more murky and intense tendencies, and it really brings the whole thing to life and makes for a multi-faceted and truly impressive listening experience that sticks to you for long after your listen.
“This song is about the frustration of being cast as the villain in someone else’s story. It’s about being misjudged and mistrusted. Why not be bad when everyone expects the worst in you anyway? The rebel era is here.”
